Chapter 63 Helpless Ending
The situation in the first half was not only beyond the expectations of the players, in fact, it was beyond the expectations of the head coach Redknapp.

Redknapp never imagined that Coventry would play so fiercely at his home court, and Southampton couldn't breathe for a while.This was a situation he had never encountered this season, and it calmed down his mind, which was dazed by the four-game winning streak. They may be strong, but they are not strong enough to definitely be able to upgrade. Isn't this game showing their true colors.

"It seems that we are really blinded by the winning streak. There are still many problems in our team. You can't see it when you are winning in a row, but when you encounter difficulties, you will run out!"

Redknapp frowned and shook his head slowly. Although he was very dissatisfied with the performance of many players on the field, he still reflected on his own problems immediately. As the head coach, he didn't have any foresight in this situation. It really shouldn't be.

Taylor responded with a wry smile. Recently, Redknapp's spirits are a bit high, but he didn't expect that it was just a half-time draw that made the opponent reflect on himself so much. From this point of view, Redknapp is still relatively vigilant.

"We still have halftime and a chance to make adjustments in the midfield. There may not be no chances in the second half!"

"It's difficult. This game, I have a hunch that it will not be easy to play. The opponent is too well prepared!"

Redknapp glanced at the head coach of Coventry on the opposite side. These head coaches don't have a good stubble, and they don't have a few brushes. Can they be the head coach in the world's most fierce secondary league?
On the opposite side, Coventry head coach Mitch Adams was dissatisfied and unhappy. It was too unacceptable for the team to be stolen by an opponent in such a good situation, but with such a score, he could only accept this result.

"That guy needs more focus on marking!" Mitch Adams muttered fiercely.

……

After the start of the second half of the game, Yunfei found that the opponent's defensive strength had reached a new level, at least for his own defense.

For Southampton's frontcourt throw-in, Yunfei took the initiative to pull the ball to the side, got the throw from his teammate, and just when he stopped the ball in his chest, before the ball stopped, three defensive players surrounded him in an instant!

Yunfei had already noticed the opponent's movements from the perspective of God, but he was still stopping the ball, so he could only watch. When he stopped the ball the next moment, three people had already surrounded him.

At this moment, Doyle was like a bull in heat, taking the lead among the three of them, pushing Yunfei forward as soon as he got up.

In a hurry, Yunfei tried his best to protect the ball from being snatched by the opponent while barely maintaining his body balance, but he couldn't find the point where the ball was released by looking left and right. After repeated delays, the ball was still snatched by the opponent.

"Three people surrounded me in the frontcourt, they really think highly of me!"

Yunfei hurriedly got up and returned to defense, while thinking silently in his heart, he had already suffered the first pain after becoming famous, that is, being more and more valued by others, this kind of attention will undoubtedly bring him greater defensive pressure, countless opposing players and head coaches will study his characteristics from various aspects, looking for ways to defend him and target him, isn’t this what this game is like, attacking himself crazily on the offensive end, so that he has no time to care about others, and now he is surrounded by three people on the defensive end, this kind of treatment Yunfei is only on those super stars I have seen it before, but I never thought that I would be able to enjoy this kind of treatment so soon.
Although Coventry's counterattack did not threaten Southampton's goal this time, it is dangerous to go on like this. On the offensive end, Yunfei was basically blocked by the opponent's crowd tactics, and he was attacked by others as a weakness in defense. This is not a good thing!
Of course, Redknapp could see it clearly off the field. He could see that the opponent had thoroughly studied his team, and the defense was quite targeted. Moreover, what the opponent was waiting for now was to replace Yunfei.

Although Yunfei was defended to death, as long as he was on the field, he could attract two or three defensive players. Not everyone could do this kind of containment on the offensive end. Substituting Yunfei himself seemed to make the offense and defense solid, but in fact it completely liberated the opponent. Redknapp would not do such a stupid thing.

But after more than 20 minutes in the second half, he still had no choice but to replace Yunfei.

"Sorry, coach, I can't help the team do more."

Yunfei's face was full of apology. The coach trusted him so much, but he really had nothing to do in the face of this situation. The offensive end was blocked to death, and the defensive energy consumption was even greater. After more than 20 minutes, it would be a matter of time before he was replaced.

"It's okay, you have performed well enough!"

There was no frustration or loss on Redknapp's face, and a draw was not unacceptable. This game also reminded him that this team is far from as strong as he imagined.

For Yunfei, Redknapp can't ask for more. After all, Yunfei is just a young player. No matter how good his performance is, he is still far from a superstar who can really decide the outcome of the game. In this game, a flash of inspiration and helping the team score a goal is enough to show Yunfei's ability and talent.

Southampton with new players is just as Redknapp expected.Although it has stabilized on the defensive end, there are not many options on the offensive end.

Bottom cross?The opponent's central defenders are taller than each other, and they do not have an advantage in height.

Infiltration in the middle?In most cases, Yunfei was involved in Southampton's excellent penetration in the middle. He can use his running position and vision to connect the team. Without Yunfei, the offense in the middle immediately becomes rough. It is impossible to easily break the opponent's defense in the middle.

When the game played like this, the ending was obvious, and the two sides ended in a draw.Although Southampton encountered a tenacious sniper, they still scored a valuable point in the away game.

Of course, Coventry was not satisfied. They didn't have any problems with their defense, but it was just a small negligence, and the opponent seized the opportunity. What can they do?

At this time, what Coventry coach Mitch Adams wanted to say to Redknapp was the sentence that many coaches had already said.

"You're lucky to have such a player!"
